Break this down for me real quick

chdavis · 03-12-2011, 12:45 AM

I'm interested in upgrading my stock angel eyes with an aftermarket LED setup. The amount of information and products available is quite literally overwhelming.

I was hoping someone could give their input on:

What is the most reliable, most OEM-looking (i.e F10 LED setup), most OEM performing, and best quality product available currently.

Thanks in advice, guys.

Best oem looking is lux v3
Best of the best but not oem looking is oss or ls3

Can you elaborate what you mean by not OEM looking? Obviously, they don't look factory. Too bright? Color difference?

It doesnt looks like a whole like the oem, instead when u look closer u will the seperate led. And the light "line" looks thin. While the lci looks neutral white and the led ring looks more "sparkling" white. But overall i am very satisfate with my kit

OSS and LS3 are head light unit swap/alter. Beaded halo look, some dig it some dont. LS3 look awesome, incomplete inside halo. There are also so LED kits I.E City vision lights sold by modbargins, throw codes on 07, but look nice.

let me ask you this, I recently got an angel eye for my 2006 E90 pre LCI.

Do most of ppl upgrade the stock xenon low beam in conjuntion with the angel eye? I believe is called D1S.

Any input will be appreciated it? still kinda new at this..

F10 like AE would be ALPINE HID during daytime but then this kit doesn't dim which means at night time it is still bright @ 100% ALPINE HID kit with dimming feature would be sick.

This is exactly what I would want. I've heard people complain about the alpines being just too bright at nightime and that you can't even make out the ring it just looks like a blob of light.
